People often use the term "another me in the world" to describe a person or character who is similar to themselves in appearance, experience or personality, he may be the passerby who is similar in shape, or the migrant worker in the episode who makes you empathize, in short, you are similar but not the same. In fact, there is also such a combination in the automotive field, if the car can speak, then the Zotye SR9 Road encounter Porsche Cayenne will definitely say: "Hey, another me in the world", and the Cayenne will drive by with its head held high. Today we will take a look at those models that look similar, but have different prices or circumstances, but it should be noted here that the following model combinations are different from the situation of the Zotye SR9 & Porsche Cayenne, and they may have some references, but they have nothing to do with plagiarism.
Tank 300 and Ford Bronco
Ford Bronco as a famous hard-core off-road vehicle, its appearance shape has influenced the design trend of some domestic off-road vehicles or hard-style SUVs, many netizens said that the tank 300 and Ford Bronco are more similar.
From the comparison of pictures, the tank 300 border limited edition has some Ford Bronco shadows in the front face structure, headlight shape and large letter logo, while the ordinary version of the tank 300 has a weaker similar feeling. In my opinion, these two cars are more godlike than shape-like, after all, they were released at similar times, perhaps the heroes saw the same thing.
Although the two cars are similar in appearance, and the domestic Ford Bronco 2.3T model has entered the catalog of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and is determined to be officially sold in China, the two cars are not a pair of comparable competitors. First of all, the tank 300 is very familiar to everyone, taking into account urban comfort and self-driving off-road, and the price of about 200,000 is very cost-effective. The starting price of Ford Bronco 2.3T model recently imported in Tianjin Port is 410,000, even if the price drops after domestic production, it is unlikely to come directly to 200,000, and the starting price is expected to be within 300,000 yuan. So the question arises, with the inexpensive tank 300 and the more expensive and legendary Ford Bronco, who will you choose?
Beijing off-road BJ80 and Mercedes-Benz G-class
Beijing off-road BJ80 and Mercedes-Benz G-class, the pair of "world else" I believe everyone can directly get the similarities, even if you don't know anything about cars, you can see that these two are almost identical. Even before, there were people with ulterior motives who took advantage of this feature to change the BJ80 to pretend to be a big G flirtatious girl, which is really ridiculous.
Although BAIC and Mercedes-Benz have a deep cooperative relationship, and the BJ80 seems to understand the design of the G-class, you must not think that the two cars are so closely related, they really just look alike, and there is nothing to do with the product in essence. This is different from Beijing off-road BJ90, although this car hangs the Beijing logo and the assembly process is relatively rough, but its essence is the previous generation of Mercedes-Benz GLS.
Speaking of Beijing off-road BJ80 and Mercedes-Benz G-class, the former guidance price is 29.49-398,000 yuan, the latter is priced at 142.48-1.899 million yuan, the price difference between the two cars is huge, and you can't buy the big G at the original price. Is the Mercedes G-Class expensive? Very expensive. But I think that the price of Beijing off-road BJ80 is also very expensive.
Ideal L9 and Xpeng G9
When I saw the ideal L9 and Xpeng G9 for the first time, I was really shocked, how can there be two cars in the world that can do so similarly? Not only the appearance, even if you enter the car, you can feel that they have almost the same design language, which can't help but make people wonder what kind of public model development these two cars use or a shared designer who scans the code on the roadside, and the new force design homogenization directly hammers.
Just looking at the design of these two cars, you can indeed feel a strong comedic effect, but if you consider its market performance, it is more about emotion and sighing, these two cars are the flagship models of the head new force brand, but the situation is very different. Needless to say, the ideal L9 is absolutely radiant in the market. A domestic model with a guide price of 42.98-459,800, monthly sales can exceed 10,000 units, which is a result that no one dared to imagine before. On the other hand, Xpeng G9 is a black spot in the short history of Xpeng, with high prices and chaotic configurations, and the cumulative sales of only more than 16,000 units in one year on the market are only a big blow, which is a big blow to the new force brand with a thin foundation. Just in September this year, Xpeng held a grand press conference for the 2024 G9, taking the year-type facelift as a new starting point, known as "fighting the G9 again". The price of the new model has been significantly reduced, and the guidance price range is 26.39-359,900 yuan, which is definitely not a popular model, but at least the sales volume should improve.
Dongfeng Fengxing T5 EVO and Lotus ELETRE
Generally, if the two cars look alike, everyone will basically think that it is a domestic car like a foreign car, after all, our own brand started late, so it is understandable, but Dongfeng Fengxing T5 EVO and Lotus ELETRE are completely reversed.
Looking at these two cars together, although one is a gasoline car and the other is purely electric, they look alike. are all split headlights, black middle net on both sides and a slight "fang" design, plus the same color, if not for the large difference in body height, at first glance really indistinguishable. As for the release time of the two cars, the Dongfeng Fengxing T5 EVO was released in November 2020 and the Lotus ELETRE was released in March 2022, the former more than a year earlier than the latter, and the British brand copied the Chinese design nail on the nail (manual dog head). In terms of price, the guidance price range of Dongfeng Fengxing T5 EVO is 9.99-139,900 yuan, and the guidance price range of Lotus ELETRE is 82.80-1.028 million yuan, and the price gap is far larger than the appearance gap.
